Travis, I'd love to see you at Dorney as well. Hydra's not super re-rideable (Mike has some choice words for it that I'm not allowed to type here), but Talon is such a great invert, and I could sit on Steel Force all day. Not a bad group of coasters to marathon (some of the CF parks have pretty bad selections for a coaster marathon, I think). Plus, our whole group is a tad nuts. I don't know if I'd do it every year, wonderful charity or not, if it wasn't for the people I've participated with.

Mike, no Golden Corral this year for me for sure...that particular location has declined to sketchy at best, borderline skeezy. I think they might be going under for health code violations. Just a heads up.

In any case, I cannot WAIT. This event is awesome, it makes me feel amazing and proud of what us coaster tools can accomplish, and it is a high point of my season before my season gets really started.

Hopefully no stupid 2-ride rule though. Blech.

We caught the lady cutting chicken then cutting vegetables on the same cutting board. The chicken was cooked (we hope), but the vegetables were raw for the salad bar. OH no. My partner was straight to the manager, he's never moved so fast.

The worlds best and largest Golden Corral lives in Branson. And not so much for better food, but because they have a showroom. Seriously. One hit wonder (but "Branson Famous") Barbara Fairchild entertains bus loads of fat white people while they enjoy unlimited grazing. There's a big neon sign over the showroom door that says "We're Open! Y'all C'mon In!" (or something like that) when the show is going on. I guess if this is happening anywhere Branson should be the place, but I saw all that and about died laughing.

Note: to be fair, I did not see Barbara's show. I understand it's ok, and she's an extremely nice lady. And she's still working, so there's that. The only reason I happen to know this anyway is that I'm a fat white person who enjoys unlimited grazing. But I drove myself there.
